Prague upon Labe

Thanks for the catch [1]. Pavel Vozenilek 23:57, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Josef František Vlček - real?

Did you hear about this person? I have suspicion someone's joke was not caught for long time. Pavel Vozenilek 02:42, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

No I did not hear about him. --Li-sung 09:02, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Straza question

Greetings. I need the assistance of someone who knows Czech. Someone has claimed that the article on Straza (specifically this edit) is a copyright violation, because it is a machine translation of the text on [2]. Is the text on that page Czech? Can you verify that the one is simply a translation of the other? Thanks so much, – Quadell ^{(talk) (bounties)} 17:02, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

On that page is nothing in czech. On bottom of page is part in german with structure very similar to english text in article, but I dont understand german. --Li-sung 17:59, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Bota47 blocked

Blocked for this edit to Hamas: [3] -- Curps 20:54, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

I see. But no probem was before, so why indefinite blocking? --Li-sung 23:38, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Indefinite just means no predetermined duration, not infinite duration. The cause of the problem has to be identified in order to prevent it recurring. I've now unblocked. You might wish to publicize your bot at WP:BOT. -- Curps 01:22, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikics template

Hi Li-sung! I've just created a new template to indicate English Wikipedia users who also contribute to the Czech Wikipedia.

Template:User wikics

Feel free to add it to your userboxes if you like it. Happy Easter. Daniel Šebesta (talk • contribs) 08:17, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Česko do toho

I think it's important to keep "rather than Česko do toho" at the end of the sentence. If we don't have it, people will ask, "Why is it unusual for people to say, Češi do toho?" -- Mwalcoff 00:06, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

No. There is important they dont chant anything with Česko. it doesnt matter if it is "Česko!clap, clap", "Česko bojovat" or something similar. --Li-sung 09:04, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Zkusim se psat v cestine. Myslim, ze kontribovani v tvoyem novem jazyce je vyborny. Ale musis byt opatrny. Rekl jsem, ze cesi reknou Cesi do toho misto Cesko do toho. Americani reknou "USA, USA," ne "Americans, Americans." Italove reknou "Forza Italia," ne "Forzono Italiani." Slovaci reknou "Slovensko do toho," ne "Slovaci do toho." Etc. Kdyby Cesko byl jako dalsi zeme, jeho fanoucki rekli by "Cesko do toho." Ale Cesko je jine nebo specialni, protoze jeho fanoucki pouzivaji jmeno obcanu statu, misto jmeno stat, v zpevich. Prosim odpovedej na muj talk page. -- Mwalcoff 23:36, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Tak mame odstranit zacatek vety o zpevi take. -- Mwalcoff 01:11, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

"Honzo, vstávej"

What does this mean in English? — May. 16, '06 [14:42] <freak|talk>

"John, wake up"!--Li-sung 18:28, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, I was just curious what it meant because the page you made was using the image Cabal of One.jpg, which I uploaded. It doesn't really matter to me, as I have released it into the public domain. In response to the message you left for me, yes, I am registered on freenode under various nicks, including "freakofnurture", "freak|away", and "freak|nap". I also have an e-mail address, in case you needed to contact me about something. — May. 17, '06 [01:06] <freak|talk>

Tatu redirect page

{{RFMF}} The page I want to mediate "Tatu" is locked in a redirect, so I put the request for mediation on the t.A.t.u. page because this is the page it is being redirected to. I cannot put it on the Tatu page because it is locked. Tatu is my name. One of your administrator shandis will not let me use my page Tatu.. The Russian rock group t.A.t.u. 's name is NOT Tatu it is t.A.T.u. I am appealing to let me have my Tatu page back with the disambiguation line at the top of the page like it was. So Am I now being denied mediation??????

Shandis made up a new page to put my content on without my permission. Tatu is my copyright name that I have used since the late 1980's... Please advise.

I just dont see any "appropriate discussion on the Request for Mediation page" as says template RFMF, so I removed the template. --Li-sung 21:12, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Anna

Hi, Li-sung! Could you, please, clarify what exactly do you mean by your comment you left in this edit's edit summary? I am specifically interested where and how the contents of Anna are out of compliance with the guidelines outlined at WP:DAB and WP:MOSDAB, where and how a "clear dab" is defined, and what its difference from dabs of other (which?) types is. Thanks.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:41, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Definition: disambiguations are paths leading to different topic pages that share essentially the same term in their title (Wikipedia:Disambiguation). I look for article about name Anna, and it IS on page Anna, so page Anna is not page leading to different topics, but one of the topic. And by the way, other Wikipedias have not similar page marked as disambiguation, so interwiki bots, that pair disambing to disambing and refuse links from nondisambing pages (on another Wikipedias) to english diasmbing, make confusion. --Li-sung 18:54, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply, Li-sung. The problems with interwiki bots you described are, however, due to inefficient programming, not due to the way English dab pages are formatted. The solution is to fix the bot, not to tweak the pages so bots work more efficiently (or correctly). As for the dab page definition (disambiguations are paths leading to different topic pages that share essentially the same term in their title), I just don't see how Anna does not fit. It starts with the names, then goes on to things, people, mentions Saint Anna, links to pseudonyms and fictional characters, refers to a location, and ends with groups and acronyms. All these numerous concepts are called "Anna", and the page disambiguates between them. If this page is not a disambiguation, then what is it? It certainly is not an article, wouldn't you agree? If there is a thing that needs to be removed, it's the list of people (per the do not add links that merely contain part of the page title (where there is no significant risk of confusion) clause of WP:DAB. The information about the name should probably be moved to Anna (name), or, alternatively, Anna should be purged of all information that is not related to the name proper, and all the disambiguation entries moved to Anna (disambiguation). One way or another, it'd be a better solution than just removing the dab notice and declaring the problem gone.

I'd appreciate your further comments.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:27, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Problem is in way how different Wikipedias think if similar article is article or disambing. Look at fr:Anne pl:Anna, they are articles about name and with list of people, but they have no template marking disambing. I found out that more name articles here is disambig, so moving to Anna (name) would need wider range action. As I am not much involved in english Wikipedia, I am not going to purge change in this case. I just made (for me) the most easy action to prevent changing interwiki links to wrong page. If you wish return the template. --Li-sung 19:43, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't realize that you were not a regular here, or I wouldn't bombard you with local policies :) I'll add this article to my to-do list and split it into the name-related and disambiguation parts as time permits (I'll sort out the interwikis, too). Please let me know if you have any questions. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 20:34, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

About the Velvet pictures..

I will be posting them sometime soon. I do not know if I still have the negatives. If not I will digitize them.

I am kind of new to posting pictures on Wikipedia so please be patient.

Thank Piercetp 16:51, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

OK Then... the Velvet Revolution pictures

http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/AttackFerret/Velvet%20Revolution/?sc=6

The link above shows where I posted them.

I must tell you that I do not know how to post photos. If you can help me it would be greatly appreciated.

And about those pictures.... All I can tell you is that I was a young tourist who just so happened to have been caught in the middle of something amazing. It was a really amazing time for anyone who was there. Piercetp 09:06, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

I can upload them, but one more thing: Do you agree to release you images under licenses GFDL and Creative Commons CC-BY 2.5 ? --Li-sung 11:28, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Sure, why not? :-)

Oh, for future reference can you tell me how to upload photos? I tried doing it myself and ran into lots of problems. I also don't understand how that legal permission stuff works.Piercetp 01:23, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

I uploaded some images to commons:Category:Velvet Revolution. I just filled forms on page commons:Special:Upload. Maybe I dont understand it well, but I think legal permission stuff has nothing to do with images uploaded by author or with his public agreement. You can just choose license from dropdown box (for example Own work, atribution required - as I taged your images), and that is you permission. --Li-sung 15:46, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. Hope you like the pictures. I had those lying around my attic for years. Piercetp 18:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Menšiny

Ahoj. Ohledně tvého editu k Demographics of the Czech Republic, rád bych tam hodil nějakou citaci, ale obávám se, že to v žádné knize nenajdeš, jelikož se moc lidí touto situací nezabývá. Jako člověk žijící ve Slezsku mezi těmito menšinami mohu říct, že toto je nad slunce jasnější. Za totality totiž nár. menšiny v ČSSR neměly zdaleka tolik práv co teď a starší lidé se skutečně staví negativně k otázce referenda. Myslím si proto, že nějaká kosmetická úprava by této větě prospěla, avšak požadavek pro citaci shledávám nepotřebným. - Darwinek 18:19, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Já právě, naopak shledávám, takové obecné tvrzení (neříkám, že se nemůže týkat jednotlivců) dosti odvážné. A protože dle pravidel Wikipedie Wikipedia:Verifiability mají být tvrzení oveřitelná z věrohodných zdrojů, tak si myslím, že to celé tvrzení není v pořádku a pokud nelze doložit, mělo by být odstraněno. --Li-sung 18:37, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Updatoval jsem celý článek. Podle novelizace § 29 odst. 2 zákona 128/2000 Sb. o obcích, již referendum mezi příslušníky menšiny není třeba (jenom dobře, stejně by se na to hlavně mladí vykašlali). Takže i tu problematickou větu jsem odstranil. V budoucnu bych chtěl tenhle článek rozšířit o informace o romské a vietnamské menšině v ČR. Jednoho dne by se to mohlo rozrůst a měli bychom zvláštní články o všech důležitých menšinach v ČR. Když tady na EN Wikipedii mohou být články o všech menšinách v Rumunsku tak si myslím, že i ČR toto potřebuje. Zatím, kamaráde. :) - Darwinek 19:16, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Interwiki bot

Hi! I noticed that you are listed as running an interwiki bot here. If it is still active, and you are editing alphabetically, please visit WikiProject Interwiki, which I created as a project to coordinate the bots to decrease overlap. If you like the idea, sign up there and visit Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals#Interwiki to let me know you'll join up. You can also say that you're working on a section in User:ST47/WikiProject Interwiki/Assignments, then follow the directions there when you've finished. If the sections I've made are too large, feel free to split one up. Thanks! ST47Talk 11:43, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

I am sorry I dont join your project. I run my interwiki bot only from my home Czech Wikipedia. --Li-sung 12:38, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for reverting

I already feel I'm drawing myself into a revert war with "random IP address", and want to thank you for reverting his edit to Czech Republic. Would you please consider also viewing Names of the Czech Republic, to see if the same action is necessary? Thank you. Bobo. 12:41, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

I need some help, please

Very Honourable Li-sung,

May I ask you, please, to help me to fix the GeoTemplate Arabic page of Map sources/GeoHack:

1. In fact, very Honourable Li-sung, the Arabic text must be aligned to the right (not to the left) on the Arabic page of Map sources/GeoHack. Would you mind to fix the text to the right. Thank you.
2. Then, I want to change the letters [(N, S) of latNS and (E, W) of lonEW] to their Arabic equivalents using the #switch function, but with no success. So, would you mind also to help me fixing that --> you may switch N to North, S to South, E to East, and W to West (and I will change them to Arabic, later). Thank you.

While waiting for you favourable response, please accept very Honourable Li-sung, my profound respect. DrFO.Jr.Tn (talk) 15:42, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
